Nutritional and health status of woolly monkeys [PDF]
, 2008 Woolly monkeys (Lagothrix lagotricha and L. flavicauda) are threatened species in the wild and in captivity. Numerous zoological institutions have historically kept Lagothrix lagotricha spp., but only a few of them have succeeded in breeding populations.

Shaping of Biohybrid Functional Living Materials
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work demonstrates a strategy for shaping living mycelium into functional materials by directing its natural growth. Nanoparticles armor hyphae, micron‐scale particles entangle within the network, and printed hydrogel architectures steer expansion, creating defined geometries.

Divergent seed dispersal outcomes: Interactions between seed, disperser, and forest traits [PDF]
EcologyAbstractAnimals disperse seeds in various ways that affect seed deposition sites and seed survival, ultimately shaping plant species distribution, community composition, and ecosystem structure. Some animal species can disperse seeds through multiple pathways (e.g., defecation, regurgitation, epizoochory), each likely producing distinct seed dispersal ...

Seed dispersal in Pinus densiflora SIEB. et ZUCC. stand at Tsukuba,Ibaraki Prefecture [PDF]
, 1990 Seed dispersal in the Pinus densiflora artificial forest was recorded in relation to weather condition such as wind velocity and air humidity. Total number of seeds was 2093 per 2.5㎡, which were trapped in a period from December 1984 to September 1986 ...

CORE: Cholesterol Altered Lipid Nanoparticles for Splenic Expression of mRNA Payloads
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.In this paper researchers introduce CORE LNPs, a new class of lipid nanoparticles engineered to redirect mRNA expression away from the liver and into the spleen, a key immune organ. By combining chemical design with computational tools, they created cholesterol analogs that enable precise spleen‐targeted expression, providing greater applications for ...
